Commissioner of Income Tax. On this count the reassessment is not sustainable in the eyes of law and needs to be quashed.

In all other cases, the claim for allowance should have to be sustained under Section 37(1) which required that the expenditure (not being of a capital nature) should have been wholly and exclusively incurred for the purpose of the business. Advances for salary and deposits for lease premises had been written off and the same were laid out or expended wholly and exclusively for the purposes of the business thus, allowable under Section 37(1).

In the instant case, the audit report was obtained within the due date prescribed u/s 44AB of the Act. The delay has occurred due to delay in filing return of income. The assessee has stated that it was under bonafide belief that the audit report could also be filed before 31.3.2015. There is also no dispute with regard to the fact that the audit report was available with the assessing officer before he completed the assessment.
